Wanting to upgrade to an iPhone4

Hello, I currently use an iPhone 3G and my 2 year contract isn't up yet. I want to upgrade to an iPhone 4 but don't want to pay $400 (instead of $200), so my friend said he'd order one and let me have it if I paid him. So my real question is "Can my SIM card from my 3G fit into an iPhone4?", and I need the answer pretty fast. Please and Thank You?

It doesn't work that way. You'll just have to wait until you are eligible to upgrade. The iPhone4 uses a microSIM while the 3G and 3GS use a regular SIM so your old 3G SIM will not work in the phone.
Your friend would also have to agree to a new 2 year contract for the phone and his current phone would be deactivated as soon as the 4 is activated in the store. You can't leave without activation.

    i want to upgrade my iphone4 to iphone5 but am out of money

    Well, in that case you cannot upgrade. On this planet, money is required to buy things.
    Get a job, save enough money, then upgrade.
    Nobody here is going to give you any money.

  • I have an iPhone4 and don't want to upgrade to iOS6, can I still update all my apps?

    I have an iPhone4 but I don't want to upgrade to iOS6.  I have iOS5 on my phone now.  Is it okay to continue updating all my apps, even those apps formatted for the new iOS6?  If I continue updating all my apps, will that alter my iOS5 peformance on the iPhone4?

    You should be able to update your app... there are a very few selected apps that require a higher iOS.  I so far had 1 app the required 5.1 on my iPad and im still on 5.01.

  • HT4972 I've got an old IPhone 4 (not a 4S) and I want to upgrade to IOS 5 not 6 or 7. Is this possible?

    I've got an old IPhone 4 (not a 4S) and I want to upgrade to IOS 5 not 6 or 7. Is this possible?

    Apple only allows updating to the current version of iOS for the device.  For the iPhone4 and later that is currently iOS7.0.4.
    There is no reason to not upgrade to the current version.

    Thanks for your valued suggessions but it didn’tmade any difference to my situation.
    So now I have an ipod in the price of an iPhone4. Crap.
    Is there any chance of fixing this bug by apple?As the same problem has already been faced by a lot of iPhone Users.

  • I have my iphone but its out of service already can i upgrade it with iphone4s?

    i want to upgrade my iphone4 to iphone4s is it possible even i dont have service already?

    Sorry but I don't quite understand. If you have an iPhone 4 subsidized by a carrier and wish to upgrade, you'll have to talk to your carrier and find out if you're eligible for an upgrade. If you're not eligible at this time, you would have to purchase an iPhone 4S at the full price.
    If you are asking if Apple will exchange an iPhone 4 for an iPhone 4S, no, they won't.
    If that doesn't answer your question, please explain further what it is you're asking.
    Regards.

  • If i want to upgrade my ios for my iphone 4 will it erase my contacts and pictures?

    I want to upgrade my iphone4 ios to ios6! If i download the new version will my contacts and my pictures will be erased?

    I would target the latest version.
    Adoption rate of iOS updates is high.
    Since you're just beginning development, trying to support older versions of iOS adds unneeded complexity to an already difficult task.

  • What All Do I Need If I Want To Upgrade My Macbook Hard Drive?

    hey guys.
    i've tried reading up a little but i was hoping someone (or a few people) could give me some straight up answers.
    if i want to upgrade my macbook hard drive what all do i need? just the hard drive? or are there other pieces?
    also.. whats a good 250GB one? i found this one on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.com/NEW-2-5-Western-Digital-250GB-SATA-Harddrive_W0QQitemZ220271 134397QQihZ012QQcategoryZ158853QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
    is that one any good? i just know the name (Western Digital) and have heard good things about them...
    any comments are welcome.
    thanks!
    beau

    I got a 320GB sata 2.5" hard drive and installed it myself, its easy. I also got a caddy so I can use my old 120GB drive as a back up. Make sure u have everything backed up! Seagate and western digital drives are most popular. I asked similar q and got this answer"
    Extended Hard Drive Preparation
    1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger or Leopard.)
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID (only required for Intel Macs) then click on the OK button. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu (use 1 partition unless you wish to make more.) Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volume(s) mount on the Desktop.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.
    If your backup is bootable, then boot from the external drive and use SuperDuper to clone it back to the newly installed drive.
    Mac Pro 2.66 Ghz; MacBook Pro C2D 2.33 Ghz; MacBook Pro 2.16 Ghz Mac OS X (10.5.4) Intel iMac C2D 17 "; MacBook 2.0 Ghz.
    And
    Now, to install the hard drive, follow http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Mac/MacBook-Core-Duo/Hard-Drive-Replacement/86/5/

  • Getting a larger hard drive...and want to upgrade to Tiger...help!

    Hello everyone!
    I have a dualie MDD with the stock 60 gig hard drive that I want to upgrade. I'd like a 200 or 250 gig hard drive.
    Once I have the new hard drive installed, I'd like to upgrade to Tiger. But I'm lost as to how this process works. I know I'd need to clone my current OS, but then how do I clone it to the new drive once it's installed?
    Would I:
    1) Back my system up onto CD/DVDs/external drive/whatever
    2) Create clone of system using CCC or Disk Utilities
    3) Install new drive??
    4) ???
    5) Upgrade to Tiger??
    I'm not sure if two drives running so close to each other inside the hard drive cage is a wise move considering how hot the inside of an MDD gets, so I may remove the 60 once everything is up and running.
    So how do I go about this the right way? Detailed instructions would be very appreciated. Thank you!

    Hi, Pat!
    First of all, get the new drive and install it. (Insure you buy an ATA drive and not a SATA drive.) If you need any assistance with installing, configuring, or initializing the drive, please post back.
    In the interim, check for updates to your third-party apps to make sure that they will all be up-to-date and Tiger-compatible. Download a free copy of Superduper! or CarbonCopyCloner to later clone your startup drive. You can also use Disk Utility's Restore option for cloning, if you'd rather do so.
    Next, you have a decision to make about the Tiger install. You can either upgrade it from Panther on your current drive, or do a fresh install of Tiger and use the Setup Assistant to incorporate your data from the Panther volume. I prefer and would recommend the latter as a much "cleaner" way of upgrading, leaving less "baggage" from the older OS. I would install Tiger directly to the new drive, which precludes the immediate need to clone anything while still leaving the original startup drive and system intact. If you'd rather do the upgrade install, then you should clone the Panther volume to the new drive, check the clone to insure it's okay, and install Tiger over Panther onto one drive or the other.
    After installing Tiger, doing the software updates, moving your user files, apps etc. to the Tiger volume, you can run and test it for a week or so to insure all is well and that you have everything you need from the Panther drive. Once you're satisfied, you can then either retain the Panther volume as-is, using it as an alternate startup drive, or (preferably) you can instead erase it, zero it, and clone a copy of your Tiger volume to it as a backup and alternate startup drive.
    Feel free to post back with any questions or concerns and one or more of the members will gladly address them.

  • Before my PC had iTunes, I loaded Aps from store onto my daughter's PC with iPad connected. I indicated my email address and Apple password. Now I want to upgrade to next iPad but Aps in my iPad are not on my PC iTunes. Do I have to buy again to keep them

    I'm a new user of an iPad. Before my PC had iTunes (it does now), I loaded Aps from from the iStore using my daughter's PC with my iPad cable-connected. I indicated my email address and Apple password--not hers and paid for these Aps--receipts arrived via my email. Now I want to upgrade to 5.1 but the Aps now loaded on my iPad do not show up  on my PC iTunes library. When I click 'Upgrade' I get a warning message that says all Aps currently on the iPad will be obliterated in the process which of course I don't want to have happen because they're not showing up on my PC which presumably means my PC is not aware of what's on my iPad. Do I have to buy these same Aps again to keep them if I'm going to upgrade to 5.1, and how do I get my iTunes on my PC to back up the Aps currently loaded onto my iPad?

    You should be able to copy the apps (and any other iTunes purchases) over to your computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. And as long as apps remain available in the store, and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to purchase them, you should be able to re-download them in the future : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    If you are already on iOS 5+ on your iPad then you should be able to update the iPad directly on the iPad via Settings > General > Software Update .

  • I have a mac mini mid 2011, this device have; 2,3GHz and 2 Gb Memmory.I want to upgrade the memory and i need the list of supported memory modules

    i have a mac mini mid 2011, this device have; 2,3GHz and 2 Gb Memmory.I want to upgrade the memory and i need the list of supported memory modules. i am from turkey.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    The Mid 2011 Mac mini supports 8 GB of memory officially, but you can install up to 16 GB of RAM, so you can use 2, 4 and 8 GB modules. You can buy more RAM from OWC or Crucial.
    If you are looking for memory at a local shop, make sure you buy 1333 MHz DDR3 memory. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4432?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

  • I want to upgrade my ( iMAC 800Mhz Power PC G4 &  iBOOK 700Mhz PC G3)

    Hello!
    I want to upgrade if possible over 1GB ? my now slow computer ( iMAC 800Mhz Power PC G4 ) and a ( iBOOK 700Mhz Power PC G3 ) which I don't think I'm confident enough to change the internal memory but the user memory I think I can attempt!
    So I'd like to know what type of ram or "model numbers" I should be looking for if I what to upgrade my empty DIMMO /J22 slot to a 1GB ?
    Keeping in mind I still have a 256GB factory standard ram in place (256 SDRAM PC133U-333)
    i.e. how many pins "184 0r 200" do I need for for my model?
    I seen lots off ram types like "Kingston PC2700, 333MHZ DDR 1GB memory "
    PC2700 333MHZ is this the model number I should be looking for to upgrade to 1.256?
    and for my ( iBOOK 700Mhz Power PC G3 ) is this also able to be upgraded to beyond the the original ibook specs just like it is suggested for the iMAC? which I also have only the original 256 SDRAM and a empty ram slot! again I not sure what model or type of ram I should be looking for here? or what is the max. it can be upgraded to with the new high density ram everyone is talking about!
    I know you guy's must seem to answer these by now simple question for you! am sorry I don't have something more challenging for you but I do need your help with this one please!
    since you've already done this and seem to know what your doing! I would like to ask for your help or anyone who know the answers to my questions ?
    Thank you in advance!
    Millenniumbug

    Unfortunatley, only imac models above 1ghz can take module of 1GB. your model can accomadate 512mb bringing it up to 768Mb which will make a decent improvement.
    go to crucial.com and input your imac model to get the right type for your system. it's also best to buy from mac friendly companies as some cheaper modules wont work
    best of luck
